Is a cone the same thing as a prism?
no it's not a cone is a pyramid and has one base but a prism has two bases and is not a cone Actually, a cone is just a cone, like an ice cream cone. a prism is like a shape strechted out like a pipe. A cylindrical prism would be a pipe with closed ends.
What are the faces of a trianlge prism?
A triangular prism has two triangular faces and three rectangular faces. Although not a perfect example, a triangular prism looks like a "Toblerone" bax.
What shapes does a triangular prism have that a rectangular prism does not have?
Triangles.A triangular prism has two triangles joined by rectangles while a rectangular prism has two rectangles joined by rectangles.
What does a prism look like?
A stop sign with thickness.
What shape does a triangular prism have than a rectangular prism does not have?
A triangular prism has two triangular faces, a rectangular prism does not have any.
What type of Len's convex or concave does a prism act like?
A prism acts like a piece of glass that has two flat, non-parallel surfaces. Each surface of a prism behaves like a lens - one surface is concave and the other is convex. The combined effect of these surfaces is to bend light as it passes through the prism.
What common objects are prism shape?
A brick, shoe-box ar two examples of rectangular prisms. A honeycomb cell is a hexagonal prism.
What objects can break light into colours?
A prism and a diffraction grating are two objects that can break light into different colors by refracting and dispersing the light, causing it to separate into its component wavelengths.
What is a octagon prism look like?
An octagonal prism has two parallel faces that are octagons and parallelograms connecting them. A rectangular prism is like a box.
How is a cylinder like a prism?
Both, a cylinder and a prism have two faces (bases) at either end. These are parallel and identical. A plane that is parallel to these bases will cut the cylinder (or prism) in identical cross sections.
What objects are similar because they are both areas where forces can act without objects touching?
Two examples of objects that are similar in that forces can act without objects touching are magnets and electric fields. In both cases, forces can act at a distance without direct contact between the objects.
How many vertices does asquare based prism?
it could have any amount! you must say the shapes on the sides like a triangular prism has two triangles on the sides and a pentagonal prism has two pentagons on the sides!
What is it called when two or more equal forces act on an object?
falling objects.

What are two forces that act on objects?
Typically there is the force of gravity pulling an object down, and a force that keeps it up - for example, the floor on which an object is standing pushes it up. There may be additional objects involved.
What are the two categories of forces?
The two categories of forces are contact forces, which occur when two objects are physically touching, and non-contact forces, which act between objects that are not in direct physical contact.
